SKF LGWM 2/MR380 grease is an NLGI 2 consistency lubricant formulated for large bearings that work under high loads and moderate speeds. Its mineral base with lithium complex thickener and EP additives makes it suitable for demanding applications in mining, steel and grinding, where the lubricating film must remain stable. At MR Accesorios Industriales we quote it by code, with technical advice to choose the quantity and the application method.

The designation LGWM 2/MR380 reads as follows: LGWM identifies the SKF grease category for large bearings; the 2 indicates the NLGI 2 consistency grade, that is, a firm grease that does not run; and MR380 corresponds to the 380-gram container. In the SKF catalogue, the numeric suffix after the slash defines the cartridge or can size. If you need another presentation, send us the full code and we will verify it.

These greases are used in spherical, cylindrical and tapered roller bearings of large diameter, mounted in mining, cement, steel, ball mill and rotary kiln equipment. Also in bearings of paper machines, port cranes and high-power gearboxes. In Argentina, the base industries — steel, cement, mining and oil & gas — are the ones that demand them most for their resistance to high loads and contamination.

To select a grease of this type, take into account the load, the speed, the working temperature and the lubrication system. NLGI 2 consistency is suitable for manual or grease-gun lubrication, but in centralized systems it may require another consistency. Before mounting, verify that the bearing is clean and that the grease line has no residue. Apply the right amount: excess grease raises the temperature and can degrade the lubricant.

As for equivalents, SKF greases in the LGWM line can replace other lithium complex greases of NLGI 2 consistency with EP additives, as long as the service conditions are verified. Not all greases are miscible: if you are going to change product, check thickener compatibility. At MR Accesorios Industriales we sell SKF and can guide you on the right alternative for your application.

If you already have the code of the bearing or the grease you use, send it by WhatsApp to MR Accesorios Industriales. We quote the presentation you need and advise you on the application. Since 1945 we know the demands of the equipment that operates in plant.
